Tohatsu 9.9HP | MFS9.9EEPTUL

The longest-shaft, remote-steer, power-tilt configuration in this family is the Tohatsu 9.9HP MFS9.9EEPTUL: a 25-inch shaft, console-style steering, power tilt, and electric-plus-manual start, at about 119 lbs.

Stacking three fit requirements

A 25-inch shaft suits tall-transom boats, remote mechanical steering suits boats already wired for a console, and power tilt suits boaters who'd rather not adjust trim by hand. All three stack on the 333cc EFI engine here, which turns 5400 to 6100 rpm at wide-open throttle.

Equipment to expect

Included here: the propeller, a steering arm, the power tilt assembly, a lanyard kill switch, a tool kit, an owner's manual, and the alternator-driven charging circuit tied to electric start — again no fuel tank, so arrange your own tank and line. Confirm your console and steering cable suit remote mechanical control before ordering. Warranty runs 5 years from Tohatsu.

Who this long-shaft build suits

Pick this one if your boat needs the longest shaft offered in this family, already has console steering wired in, and you'd rather adjust trim from the helm than climb back to a lever at the motor. Drop any one of those three needs and a different configuration in this same lineup likely fits you better instead.

Is there a tiller option on this same code? No, this specific configuration is remote-steer only.

Shaft length? 25 inches.
